Ryan Mosier Obituary
Ryan was born on June 8, 1976, in Tegucigalpa, Honduras, to John Mosier and Linda (née DeCello) Mosier. He spent his childhood in Honduras, attending the American School of Tegucigalpa. It was during his teenage years that Ryan discovered his love for competitive equestrian show jumping, a passion he pursued with great dedication. After receiving a Bachelor of Science in Aviation Management from St. Louis University, he went on to build a successful corporate career in aviation. In 2009 he received a Master's in Business Administration from NYU Stern School of Business. He made Chicago his home in 2010. He loved traveling the world to visit family and friends.
Known for his kindness, thoughtfulness, and deep gratitude, Ryan will be remembered for his loyal friendships, his genuine concern for the underprivileged, his playful sense of humor, and his love for household pets.
Ryan is survived by his loving parents, John and Linda Mosier; his brother, Justin Mosier; and his sister, Liana (Adam) Axley. He will also be deeply missed by countless other family members, friends, colleagues, and classmates who were fortunate to know him and who held him close in their hearts.

Lo siento tienen mi solidaridad y condolencias.... Ryan was always a gentleman and profoundly kind. I knew him as a fraternity brother. May your family rejoice in knowing he is at rest and awaits your eternal love and presence.

Ryan was a wonderful friend to me from the first day I met him at SLU all those years ago and we stayed in contact even after we went our separate ways. He came out to Cincinnati to celebrate my 21st birthday and he put me up in his place in Dallas for a night as I drove out west. Always friendly and welcoming. He had a comfort about him that made it easy to love him. I miss him dearly and can at least find some peace knowing he is not suffering anymore. I am better off having had him in my life and I will always cherish my time with him.

Dear Linda & John,
I wanted to share a few thoughts to thank you for the amazing person you raised and shared with the world. Ryan was a source of light and his spirit glows eternal.
This life doesn´t always have to make sense, because this feels so unfair. All we can do is cherish every moment with kind true friends while we are here. Ryan has been one of those people for me over the past 2 decades. He was one of the founding members of my "angel team" when I needed a few angels here on earth.
The kindness that Ryan always showed me, especially through some dark times, is a true testament to the wonderful person he is. His generosity with his friendship, his thoughtful and caring nature, and opening his home to me and my Bernie Cat after the infamous Dallas burglary will live in my heart forever. I think we made a good team and I will miss him immensely.
Love to the whole Mosier family,
Jody
